We wanted to select alternative file managers which are definitely worth trying but may have been missed given that they receive little coverage in Linux publications, and are not included or installed by default in mainstream Linux distributions. Some of the applications are still in an early stage of development.
One application that is not included in this list but is worthy of a mention is Codename Nemo. We particularly like Codename Nemo for its innovative approach to file management. Unfortunately, the application does not appear to be under active development.
